bodyweight exercises
(rhythmic, without apparatus)
like running, standing, pushing, grasping
I showed my mom around 30 stretches and exercises, yesterday:
She loved the happy baby and trunk-twists :-)
And she really felt the calf stretch and groin stretch.
she asked me what calisthenics meant, and I said I don't really know, actually
I showed her the
toe twirl (from aikido)
sun-salutation (reach toward the sky)
fold (touch your toes)(can also be done on the floor)
child's pose (like the muslim prayer pose)("reset")
happy baby (grab your feet!)
groin stretch (using elbows)
hurdler's stretch (reaching forward)
(leaning to the side)
plank
side plank
isometric hands (push and hold)
pushups
situps
crunches
bicycle crunches (touch elbows to knees)
"shakes" (like drumming, or shiatsu)
dancing (with music; I like to kick), cardio
(good to "sweat" !!)
jumprope (with or without rope)
lunges
bicep curl (with a can of soup?)
bicep curl with shoulder extension
calf-stretch, with wall support
supported, standing - grab your ankle
leaning pushups (against kitchen counter)
arm rotations (little circles, big circles)
warm your arm (!), stretch your wrist
trunk-twists (swing your arms) "relaxing"
shoulder (didn't like)(grab your elbow)
forgot:
overhead tricep extension
cobra
shoulder shrugs
hip-opener
warrior
horse stance
sitting against a wall
legs apart, touch feet (standing or sitting)
hug your knee
